I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at GLG (Austin, TX)
Interview
Three steps. Started with a phone interview with two different members of the team. Then had to perform a case study within three days and present it to a manager. Was then flown to office where I went out to breakfast and interviewed all day face to face - all behavioral.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at GLG (Austin, TX) in Aug 2016
Interview
Mariann emailed to set up a 30 minute interview. I didn't receive a call until I emailed her 10 min after the scheduled time and she said she could not get reach me through my cell which was working fine so that was kind of suspect... We spoke for 15 minutes but I thought she was quite rude and was already a little questionable that she was late and didn't bother to send an email reaching out. She asked what I knew of the position and when I explained to her what I thought it was, she asked me again to explain the role in further detail but said that was only a part of it. After asking her more questions about the role she interrupted me and asked if "I was still interested" so I declined.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at GLG in Aug 2016
Interview
I applied via an employee referral, and was contacted within the week to set up a phone screening. This was the first of seven interviews I would undergo over nine weeks. The two weeks after my 5th interview were spent with me just waiting to hear back about scheduling the next interview, which I already knew I was supposed to have, and when I reached out for an update I was told to keep waiting and they would reach out when they were ready. I thought it was unprofessional to basically ask me to keep waiting indefinitely for them to get back to me.
There was a case study during interview #4 which involved role playing as if you were a GLG employee working with a client. It was challenging because I felt like I did not have enough information to really be able to play my role appropriately, but it did give me a good feeling for what a typical interaction with a client would look like, as well as how the team works. Most of the interview questions were not that difficult and tended to be repeated from interview to interview--mostly questions about why I was interested in GLG specifically. During my last interview, I felt like my interviewer was kind of condescending and a little skeptical of my achievements. He seemed bemused by some of my answers. Aside from that last interview, I really enjoyed talking to everyone I spoke with and was disappointed not to get offered the job, especially after such a lengthy and intensive process.
